SIMPSONCleaning CM61083 Clean Machine 3400 PSI Gas Pressure Washer, 2.5 GPM, CRX Engine, Includes Spray Gun and Wand, 4 QC Nozzle Tips, 5/16-in. x 25-ft. MorFlex Hose, 49-State

So out of the box this washer is pretty basic - no accessories other than 4 nozzles. I added some stainless steel quick disconnects, a 50 foot hose extension, a cheap foam cannon, the Simpson in-line pressure regulator, and a 15 inch surface cleaner.This is a bargain and worth every penny even without those accessories. The power is amazing. The engine started on the second pull. It is relatively quiet for a gasoline engine. I ran it through 2.5 gallons of gasoline in about 4 hours of continuous operation with zero issues.There is some preparation required before the first use - the big one is you need to add oil - which is included in a pre measured pouch - to the engine crankcase Do this before putting any gasoline in the tank and give the engine several pulls to lubricate things. Also, before you start the engine, connect the pump to the supply hose and turn on the water. Remove the nozzle from the spray wand and squeeze the trigger to purge and prime the pump and high pressure hose - this can take a few minutes to fully purge out the air. Once purged, make sure their is gasoline in the tank, the throttle is open, the fuel valve is open, the choke is closed, the kill switch is on and give the starter a pull. Once the engine has started, pull the spray wand trigger again to fully purge the pump. It may look and feel like the pump has low pressure - keep squeezing the trigger and give it a minute. You will hear the engine bog down and suddenly there is pressure. Add the spray nozzle and go to work!The only issue I had was mounting the spray wand holder. It he mounting hole is partially blocked by the “apron” between the handles. I had to loosen the Torx screws of the apron to get enough clearance for the bolt to go in the hole. Once it was through, the apron screws could be tightened up again. And the holder holds the wand very securely if you insert it and twist it to snap it in place. Maybe the newer machines have a redesigned holder based on other reviews stating the holder was “worthless”.Based on my experience so far, I would recommend this machine - it is more than adequate for home use. The build quality is very good, the frame is strong, the engine is great, and the performance is awesome. Hopefully it lasts years with moderate use.

I have a Dewalt electric power washer with just over 2000 psi that just didn’t quite have the power needed to clean all of my sidewalks and driveway, so I upgraded to this. It was exactly what I needed. Tons of power, runs great, starts easy, very light and easy to move around.However, I would HIGHLY SUGGEST not buying the surface cleaning attachment bundle. It was AMAZING for the first 5 minutes until it suddenly started spinning super slowly and just making crazy lines on the sidewalk. Checked YouTube. And a ton of people had the exact same problem. It says up to 3700 psi, but that’s incorrect. 3300/3400 psi is too much and the pressure bends it to where it no longer spins like it should, making it totally useless. I would highly recommend buying this power washer, but buying a different surface cleaning attachment elsewhere.

Started Up on the First Pull!!good price and operates great

Ok it does vibrate alot.but it does have good pressure way more than an electric washer does.dont put your hands in front of the nozzle it will cut you.you can pressure wash a 2x6 pine board and if close to it it will peel the lumber.i don't know how long it will last but ive used it 3 x.starts easy. Motor stays running fast when thou let of the handle of the wand.when pressed again builds pressure very fast. If you have decals on your car don't get to close;it will peel off stickers as well .

I was looking forward to using this pressure washer as Simpson is one of the top brands in the business. I received the pressure washer and everything arrived intact. It was simple to assemble and instructions were easy to follow. Added oil and gas and it was ready to go. Easy start up and was working great until it wasn't. Engine shut off and would not restart. I then discovered the spark plug wire had come unattached and when I checked it, the inside of the plug fell out. Unfortunately this could not be repaired and now I have to go to a service center for a warranty repair. A WARRANTY REPAIR AFTER 5 MINUTES IS UNACCEPTABLE. Now I have to wait 3 weeks or more for the repair. A NEW pressure washer that has to be repaired should be replaced and if not then a significant refund should be issued! This is the chance you take buying online and my advice would be to buy locally for this exact reason. Had customer service been authorized to replace the unit rather than repair the unit I would have no issues but now I am afraid this unit may give me problems for as long as I have it.**Update: I wish this was a happy ending update but as of today October 7, 2024, my NEW pressure washer is still with the Authorized Repair Center. After repeated calls, trips to the shop, conversations with warranty, the issue is still unresolved. I keep getting the same response, we are waiting on a part. No one has reached out to me to keep me in the loop during the process, the only way I get information is when I seek it out myself. I have been very patient but no one seems to care. At this point I just want a refund so I can go purchase another unit. I will keep you updated so that you may learn from my experience.
